Police conduct a no-knock raid; homeowner kills an officer; charges dropped because it was self defense. Same thing happens 6 months later, but this time prosecutors want the death penalty. Gosh, can you guess the difference between the 2 shooters?

A no knock raid?
You deserve to be shot at.
Time to rethink our drug policies.
The major opponents to drug reform are the law enforcement departments.
Make all of it legal and force the police to go after people that are really doing society harm, like NFL players that beat on women, car thieves, child molesters, Wall Street bankers that plunder retirements and tank the economy.
You know, real crime. Not the fake bullshit of someone smoking a joint in public in New York where the cop gets an easy bust and a promotion.
It’s systemic. It’s rotten from the top down.

Yikes, we’re surrounded by police with guns drawn.
The police helicopter is doing wide circles.
No idea what is happening.
Doesn’t seem to be anything to do with our building…it is still eerie.
The close helicopter noise has Mel the Cat running for his favorite blanket to hide under!

I’m watching a Hawaii Five O with Ricardo Montalban playing a Japanese mobster.
With all the Japanese actors around, even then, they couldn’t find one to play that, or maybe they had already used them all too many times, since this was Season 1, episode 6?

I received a note from frugal’s lovely lady, Debbie, this afternoon, wherein she let me know he’s had a stroke. They got to the ER immediately, and he’s already made a joke about the bad karma of posting that bike mileage photo (6666.6 miles), followed by a crooked grin. 😆

He’ll continue to have tests, and she’ll keep me posted about his progress.

There are different strokes (no pun intended) and it sounds like they got to her in time.
Too many people don’t take the signs seriously.
Watch your blood pressure people.
Hyper tension kills and it’s partially genetic.
